Lowender has its roots in Lowender Peran, Cornwall’s Celtic Festival which ran for 45 successful years.
Whether it was by rebelling against one of the most powerful medieval Kings in Europe, by cradling the industrial revolution or by a unique interpretation of Wesley’s preaching, Cornwall and the Cornish have a long history of expressing a distinctive identity.
Showcasing Cornwall’s cultural treasures and welcoming international performers from across the Celtic world.
Festival goers of all ages can enjoy ceilidhs, concerts, Cornish and Celtic music sessions and much more.
